Comprising 231 hectares, Hillview Dairy Farm is situated just minutes from Featherston and presents an exceptional opportunity to secure a medium scale, semi self-contained dairy business in a well-established farming district of the South Wairarapa. With four titles the land also provides some purchase options.

The approximately 210-hectare platform area includes K-line irrigation to around 100 hectares from two consented supplies, ensuring solid summer/autumn performance. Production is forecast for 180,000 kgms this season from around 475 cows at peak milk. Soils are silt based, mostly drained and fertile, with some wetter areas in and around Turners lagoon. On farm improvements feature two houses and a single bedroom accommodation, a well-sited 36-aside herringbone dairy shed with ACR’s and a full range of calf sheds and implement sheds.

The farm has been operated under a low-input, lower-cost system for some years and a proactive feed cropping and pasture renewal programme, sees around 15-20ha’s into new grass each season.

With good infrastructure, fertile soils and irrigation, this property is ideally suited to those seeking a mid-sized dairy operation with further potential in the South Wairarapa.
